Motor cortex microcircuits : : (Frontiers in brain microcircuits series) / / topic editors: Michael Brecht, Nicholas Hatsopoulos,Takehsi Kaneko and Gordon M. G. Shepherd.
How does the motor cortex enable mammals to generate accurate, complex, and purposeful movements? A cubic milimeter of motor cortex contains roughly ̃10̂5 cells, an amazing ̃4 Km of axons and ̃0.4 Km of dendrites, somehow wired together with ̃10̂9 synapses. Corticospinal neurons (a.k.a. Betz cells,...
